STARKVILLE, Miss. (WCBI) – Five people were injured this weekend after shots were fired outside of an Okitibbeha County night club. Now residents in the area say something needs to be done about the violence.

“In the last 4 to 5 years, it’s just been random shootings, different events, fights and stuff,” says Willie Dee Williams, who lives behind Club Rock in the Rock Hill area.

“It woke me up around 3 o’clock in the morning. So I got up and looked out the window and people were running up and down the street,” says Rock Hill resident, Betty Jean Petty.

Five people were injured in the shooting. One person was airlifted to a Jackson hospital.

“Most of my concern is about the stray bullets because I’m so close and I’m next door.Once bullets fly, they’re going somewhere,” says Williams.
